What at all is it about the Catholic Church and a silly form of secrecy?
Someone called the office of a Catholic periodical in the last days to enquire what the circulation firgures were for the publication.
The enquirer was told by the person at the other end of the telephone that they did not know. However thid did ask the enquirer for her name.
So typical and yet another metaphor for so much of what the institutional church represents.
Circulation figures for most Irish newspapers and periodical are readily available. The only ones not to hand are those that are trying to lie and obfuscate about their readership.
The old story. The church and secrecy.
